Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 520 Returning to China
In addition to team members such as assistants and bodyguards, Chen Linfeng also returned with some behind-the-scenes staff from the crew, as well as those students.

Most of these people know how much importance "Inception" is given to it in China, and now they all feel like they are returning home with honor.

There were even passengers on the plane who were able to recognize them and knew that they were members of Chen Linfeng's team.

It was quite lively.

During the interview, they were also asked whether Chen Linfeng was on the same plane. They naturally kept their mouth shut, but some passengers still speculated that he should be there.

But due to my background, I didn’t look at the first class cabin.

In the past when Chen Linfeng was in the TV drama era, he had a lot of fanatical fans, but later on, due to constant guidance, he gradually became better.

In recent years, he has been more involved in directing work, and even when he acts as an actor, it is mostly movies.

After all, movie stars are not as likely to attract more fanatical fans as TV stars.

Especially for young fans who are junior and senior high school students, to them, Chen Linfeng can probably be considered an "old guy", so the number of new fanatical fans has become relatively smaller.

The loyal little fans back then have all grown up now. Many of them have entered society and started working, or are at least clear-headed and stupid college students, and their fanaticism is not as high anymore.

So there must be some of his fans on this plane, but they were able to restrain themselves.

But discussion is inevitable, and many people are chattering about it.

"Is the Wind God finally coming back?"

"It should be. If I don't come back, those people spreading rumors online will become even more arrogant."

"Rumors? What are they spreading?"

"There are all kinds of rumors, most of which say that Feng Shen is not going to return to China, and will stay in Hollywood and become a naturalized citizen of the United States."

"Oh, are you kidding? With the position of the Wind God, how is that possible?"

"That's right. Everyone knows that he is the leader of the 50-cent army on the Internet. No matter how you think about it, you know he will not not come back."

"..."

"These people really understand." Guo Fan thought to himself.

He did not sit in first class, but sat in economy class on purpose, just to observe the passengers here.

This was the method Director Chen implemented at the beginning.

Speaking of which, Director Chen's observation of characters is also a very famous example.

As Director Chen's fame grew, some of his past life and study experiences were dug up.

Many teachers at Yanying tell their students this when teaching.

It is said that when he was in college, he constantly observed ordinary passers-by, which not only enabled him to develop superb acting skills, but also to make the characters vivid and the stories realistic when writing scripts.

Chen Linfeng’s current success is certainly due to his extraordinary talent, but the hard work he put in during college was also a great help.

This matter is now widely circulated in the industry.

Many teachers from Yanying have mentioned it, and graduates from classes 02 and 03 have provided evidence to support it, so everyone still believes it.

Especially since Chen is so terrifyingly strong now, there must be some reason.

Forget about talent, that is something that you cannot learn from nature, but you can always learn the methods of learning and doing things.

Many senior people in the industry are too embarrassed to do so and are only promoting the idea, but some students have begun to put it into practice.

Although Guo Fan graduated for several years, he was determined to become the senior brother of the Chen family and of course to follow his teacher's path.

Therefore, ever since this matter spread, I have been trying to find ways to put it into practice.

It just so happens that he is not very famous now, which does not prevent him from observing ordinary people.

Wen Muye had the same idea as Guo Fan and was also in economy class, sitting next to him.

"He is also an ambitious person. We should be wary of him." Guo Fan thought.

Wen Muye obviously had no idea what his usually amiable senior brother was thinking; he was just expressing his feelings from the bottom of his heart.

"I just returned to China, but so many people are paying attention to me. Is this what a teacher is like?"

"That's normal. When the Times Square incident happened, the American people were so excited. When it comes to our country, we should be no less excited."

"That's right, Brother Guo, you are right."

"Call me senior brother." Guo Fan emphasized.

Wen Muye looked at him in confusion, but still said obediently, "Senior brother is right."

Yanjing Capital Airport.

Many reporters had gathered outside the airport in advance, some even drove news vehicles and carried equipment.

After watching for half a month, I finally confirmed that Chen Linfeng was coming back.

No one wants to miss this first-hand news.

"Hey, is it coming out?" Suddenly someone pointed forward and shouted loudly.

In an instant, everyone heard the news and rushed forward.

Sure enough, even though they hadn’t seen each other for half a year, everyone still recognized Director Chen at a glance.

"Director Chen, can you accept an interview?"

"Director Chen, we are reporters from V Station. We are one of you. Can we interview you?"

"Yanjing Newspaper, we are your old friends. Please allow us to ask you a few questions."

"..."

Chen Linfeng heard this sentence keenly, no, when did Yanjing News become my old friend?

You are so shameless.

"Please don't crowd. There are special arrangements at the airport. Please conduct the interview in an orderly manner."

The airport staff shouted into the loudspeaker at the top of his lungs, but the small loudspeaker in his hand didn't seem to be very effective in this situation.

Everybody was shouting and it was so noisy.

Not to mention, passengers who didn't know the news, as well as some fans who were originally planning to board the plane, also rushed to the scene after hearing the news, and more and more people came to the scene.

Fortunately, Capital Airport knew Chen Linfeng’s itinerary information this time and knew that something would definitely happen at that time.

Therefore, adequate security arrangements were made in advance.

The security personnel tried their best to maintain order, and finally the situation was not as chaotic as it was at the beginning.

The reporters were basically arranged in the front, and behind and around them were the fans.

From Chen Linfeng's personal experience, under normal circumstances, unless it is specially arranged, it is not so easy to be surrounded by a large group of fans or even cause congestion at the airport.

His case is a typical special case.

Even he himself was mentally prepared.

"Director Chen, is this your last trip back to China?"

"What do you mean? I'm going home, how can it be the last time?"

"Because there are rumors that you are going to change your nationality to Emilian and develop in Hollywood in the future."

"rumor!"

"Does this mean that you will continue to film in the country in the future?"

"My schedule has been quite full in the past two years. I may have cooperated more with foreign celebrities and capital. In China, I provide scripts and let several of my students try them out. In fact, some of them have already finished filming and will probably be released early next year."

Chen Linfeng advertised to a few disciples and then said,
“In addition, in China, we have been promoting the construction of special effects studios that are comparable to those in Hollywood since the year before last, and I heard that they are almost completed.

Even if I shoot Hollywood blockbusters in the future, I will probably shoot more in China, so you don’t have to worry about me going abroad.”

It seems that this is probably the issue that the public is most concerned about right now, so Chen Linfeng’s statement is also the most clear.

"But, there are rumors that Director Chen, you have obtained American citizenship. Is this true?"

"This is a pure rumor. The reporter just now was just saying that I might change my nationality in the future. How come when it comes to you, I have already changed to a foreigner? Can you guys unify your versions first?"

Chen Linfeng felt a little headache and felt the difficulties that other stars had encountered in the past.

Some domestic celebrities have also encountered similar situations and need to try every means to prove their nationality.

The most concerned and important identity issue has been solved. Next, it is the topic of "Inception", which has been hotly discussed by the public to this day.

"Director Chen, Inception finally earned $12.66 billion at the box office. What do you think is the biggest reason for this achievement?"

“Maybe it’s because it’s a 3D movie.”

"what?"

This is indeed the reason that Chen Linfeng has been thinking about the most recently.

The previous version of "Inception" only had a box office of 8.3 million US dollars. When he took over the film, it suddenly earned an extra 4 million US dollars. It doesn't seem normal no matter how you think about it.

Even if he had made big news before the movie was released, it wouldn't have been this much.

Later I thought that the biggest difference between the two versions of the movie should be the time difference and the difference between the 3D and 2D versions.

The upper limit of 3D movies is indeed much higher than that of 2D movies.

Not only are audiences more obsessed with 3D movies nowadays, the visual effects are more attractive and the sense of immersion is stronger, making many people willing to go to the cinema to watch them.

The ticket price of 3D movies is itself an important factor in increasing the overall box office.

Therefore, Chen Linfeng's words truly came from the bottom of his heart.

"Of course, the quality of the movie itself is pretty good, the marketing team is quite attentive, and the audience's support is also a very important reason."

The media couldn't help but criticize, this should be the main factor.

“How do you feel about the movie finally making it into the top five in film history at the box office?”

"Fortunately, after working hard, these are a kind of proof and reward for my own efforts. I was very happy when I knew I had this result."

"Now one of your movies may earn more box office than other directors' movies in their entire lives. And if converted into RMB, your career box office as a director has exceeded 10 billion, far exceeding other domestic directors. What do you think about this?"

"I don't think we can judge a director by his success or failure. Some directors may not be very good at the box office, but they have high artistic value. It's hard to compare them."

"But your award is almost second to none in the country."

"Well...how can you ask a question like that? Change it."

"..."

This impromptu press conference at the airport lasted for nearly two hours before it finally ended.

Nowadays, various media reporters are still very respectful to Director Chen and basically do not ask particularly difficult questions.

Even if someone didn't want to answer, Chen Linfeng would just say "pass" and basically no one would hold on to it.

His current status in the country is evident.

Even the Yenching News had always disliked Xiao Chen, thinking he was sitting on the wrong side of the fence and always siding with Dongda.

You are also a capitalist, how can you have a motherland?
But by now, these media have basically stopped attacking Chen Linfeng.

Because there is no longer any angle to belittle him, instead praising his achievements can better highlight the glory of the Beacon Country.

This is the essence of the beautiful country dream.

It can only be said that these people have not yet experienced several waves of fatal blows such as the "dog food era", the "epidemic era" and the "big reconciliation era".

The flight from Los Angeles to Yanjing arrived in the afternoon. When Chen Linfeng returned home, it was already dark.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Liu Qianqian standing at the door to greet me.

She had her hair tied up in a bun with a pink ribbon, looking very cute. A little cloud cat was squatting beside him, looking up at him. When it saw Chen Linfeng appear, it sniffed around.

Then, as if recognizing someone, it meowed twice in a very quiet voice.

"Why is it so good this time?" Chen Linfeng felt that along with the cold air from the indoor air conditioner, his heart was warm.

"I just saw the news on my phone that you were stuck in airport traffic."

Liu Qianqian took the bag from Chen Linfeng and said, "If you don't let me pick you up, I will have to meet you at the door."

As usual, Chen Linfeng squatted down and touched Xiao Yunmao's head.

Little Yunmiao ran away immediately as if he had completed his mission.

"Have you finished your work here in the country?"

"Yes, several commercial activities and the commercials that I had to shoot for endorsements are all finished."

Liu Qianqian thinks this is a good idea. When she has time, those companies can cooperate and get the job done together.

Now Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian are both treated like this.

The two of them currently have very few endorsements.

Liu Xixi also has this need, after all, international endorsements are also part of celebrity status.

She often divides the task into the first half and the second half and completes it separately.

Chen Linfeng now only has some endorsement contracts from the past that have not yet ended, and he basically does not sign new endorsements.

He no longer needs this and it's wasting his time.

In the evening, Chen Linfeng "painfully" discovered that Xixi was playing cosplay again.

When she was in Los Angeles before, she had cosplayed as the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, and this time she changed to Nezha.

The key cosplay is still Nezha's bellyband outfit.

No wonder when she came back today, Xixi had her hair in a bun. It turned out that it was all planned.

Chen Linfeng's eyes unconsciously scanned from top to bottom.

The pink bellyband on her upper body reveals her body curves vaguely.

(Internet picture, please delete if infringement)

She wore a short skirt on her lower body, revealing her two snow-white thighs.

He was holding a glowing circle in his hand, which served as a Qiankun Circle, but no one knew where he found it.

Combined with Liu Xixi's pure and somewhat cold face, she looks both pure and sexy.

"You don't want me to rest."

"Hey, give me some comments." Liu Qianqian smiled shyly and naively.

"I think you're being too much. My husband has just been on a plane for more than ten hours, and you're trying to seduce him. Is that reasonable?"

Chen Linfeng said righteously, "I'm not someone who will fall for this."

Liu Qianqian's face flushed, "Then don't touch me with your hands."

"Hmph, I'm just checking the material of the clothes. By the way, is this still silk?"

"..."

Because he was too tired, Chen Linfeng was unable to get up on time the next day and slept until the evening.

It was not until the third day that Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian went to Old Chen's house together.

I haven’t seen my parents for half a year, so I have to get together with them.

Chen Shantong knew his son was coming, so he didn't go to the company.

As someone in the film and television industry, he understands the turmoil of the past few months most clearly.

"Xiaofeng, you are really different now. Recently, when I go out to meet people, including some business partners and leaders, the first thing I mention is you."

Chen Shantong said with some headache and some pride, "If things continue like this, I will become 'Chen Linfeng's father'."

Wang Yanping said unhappily, "Aren't you his father?"

"What I mean is that when people mention me in the future, they won't treat me as the boss of Longlin Company, but will toast me because I'm Xiaofeng's father."

Ms. Wang glared at him, "You went to drink again? How many times have I told you not to drink?"

"I can't tell you," Chen Shantong was speechless. This must be menopause.

Chen Linfeng watched his parents bickering with a smile.

"Dad, your worry is unnecessary. You are behind the scenes. Others will definitely know the names of celebrities. Even if I am not there, there is Xiaolong. Anyway, you will always be the 'father of so-and-so' in the future."

"Well, you are right, so my crime is not a crime committed in war." Chen Shantong nodded.

Although he complained, he was actually secretly happy when others called him that.

My son’s achievements are also his achievements. How can I complain about my child being too successful?

On the contrary, the son is more likely to be troubled by his father's success.

Speaking of this, he recalled some rumors in the industry.

"By the way, Xiaofeng, I heard that Zhang Guoli's son was arrested for absorbing flour. Have you heard about this?"

"No," Chen Linfeng shook his head, "I haven't heard this rumor abroad."

Liu Qianqian raised her hand, "I know. Changchang mentioned this when he was gossiping with me a while ago."

"Hey, you said it's fine, why do you have to suck that thing?"

Wang Yanping felt it was a pity just thinking about it. His parents must be very sad when they knew their son had been arrested.

When she thought of this, she immediately warned, "You must not touch that stuff. If you get involved with it, your life will be ruined."

"That's right," Chen Shantong also said, "I heard that some people in the circle don't care. They even say that it helps to inspire inspiration.

Xiaofeng, especially you, I can tell you, even if you really have no inspiration, the money we earn now is enough, and we can't even touch flour."

Chen Linfeng was speechless, "Absorbing flour for inspiration? Anyone who believes this is a fool.

Our circle is different from theirs, and those people can’t get along with us at all.”

He had heard similar stupid statements in his previous life, and he always sneered at them.

Liu Qianqian also nodded quickly. "When I read history books, the thing I hated the most was the Opium War. There was no way I would touch that thing."

"That's good."

Chen Linfeng sighed, "Speaking of which, Zhang Mo and other second-generation stars are under too much pressure. Their parents are too famous, and if they can't catch up, they tend to give up. If they have some bad friends around them, then it's really..."

Of course, giving up is not an excuse. These people have ideological problems that cannot be corrected.

Every Chinese person should know the harmful effects of flour.

It’s just that Chen Linfeng has a good relationship with Zhang Guoli, just like his mother, so it feels a bit of a pity.

Since we are talking about this topic, Chen Shantong talked about the current cultural issues in the circle.

"In the past two years, I feel that some circles are really chaotic. There are quite a few reports that I have heard about."

"Yes, indeed, I heard that, too."

Chen Linfeng nodded, as if after 10 years, many people suddenly became impetuous.

I think it has something to do with the skyrocketing pay, after all, the timings are basically the same.

"There are rumors that Fang Long's son is the same as Zhang Mo, but I don't know whether it's true or not." Liu Qianqian provided a piece of news.

"Ah? There is such a thing?" Chen Shantong was surprised.

"These second-generation stars." He shook his head.

Then Chen Shantong immediately thought of his own family.

"Speaking of which, your future children will be the biggest second-generation stars. When the time comes, the issue of education will be... huh? Right, when are you two going to have children?"

Well, everything can be turned to this question.

Chen Linfeng was relatively calm, but Liu Qianqian's face turned red in an instant.

"Uh... maybe in two years. We're only 24, still young."

"What's so small? In our time, the children would have been in primary school."

Ms. Wang rarely stood on the side of her second son, and she was a little anxious.

Fortunately, this topic did not last long.

Because Shi Xiaolong is here.

He also brought his girlfriend.

Chen Linfeng had met this young sister-in-law before.

Her name is Wang Mengfei. She has a good personality and is pretty.

Before I knew it, I thought Xiaolong’s mysterious girlfriend was an assistant in his team.

Later I found out that the person was engaged in event planning.

The two had overlapped in their work, and Wang Mengfei and an assistant in Xiaolong's team had been friends since childhood, so they gradually became familiar with each other.

Although this sister-in-law is not from the entertainment industry, she is engaged in a job that is closely related to the entertainment industry.

This is good, I can talk with Xiaolong and Xixi.

After meeting her a few times at recent family gatherings, it was clear that Sissi and she got along well.

Now that Shi Xiaolong and his partner are here, it’s not a good idea to bring up the topic of inducing labor, in case it scares others.

The topics discussed by several people mainly revolved around the entertainment industry.

Among them are matters concerning various domestic awards.

The rectification of the Golden Rooster Awards caused quite a stir in the circle.

After all, the jury that made these centuries-old classics in film history was so huge that it needs to be inherited as much as possible.

There will definitely be some people who would consider not participating, after all, many of them have not been in the circle for a long time.

It was only for Chen Linfeng's sake and the title of "A Century-Old Classic in Film History" that he participated in it that once.

Therefore, a small number of vacancies are left, and some film and television practitioners in the industry need to be selected to replace them.

Among them, young people will be the majority.

After all, when we looked at the classics in the history of film for a hundred years, most of the actors chosen were famous old people, with very few new generations.

When it comes to selecting people in the entertainment industry, especially those with a certain status and class, and even more so when they are new generation stars, there will be a huge commotion.

It was simply a chaotic dance of demons.

Several versions of the list have already appeared on Weibo.

What about the four young actors and four young actresses who are going to be on stage, or the Best Actor and Best Actress award, why don’t you arrange one for me?
This again involves the question of the value of the award.

You, a XXX queen, are trying to scam me?

In short, it was very lively.
